What a joy to find an uplifting article on the front page of The Denver Post. To read about this amazing young person, who finds so much to be happy about in life despite the challenges of her dwarfism, infused me with hope. If only more of us could remember to practice gratitude and gladness the way she does.

Mia Towl, I wish you a delightful experience at the World Dwarf Games and on your journey through life. This sad world sorely needs your bright mind, determination and sparkle.

Melanie Eulberg, Lakewood
